Is being a wolf a gift-or a curse?
Haley Campbell is a wolf caught in a trap of her own design-terrified of her own violent urges and unabating hunger. Wharton promises to be a respite, a means to an end; after all, her own grandfather found peace in the beachfront town decades earlier. She didn't intend to find love when she arrived, and certainly not with a human: Hunter Bailey's sister, Candy.
Angus Chilton and Hunter have built a quaint, beautix life together in Wharton. The tumultuous events of the previous year are just nightmares now, forgotten in the light of day. Haley may very well tear them asunder. And, a loose end has come untied, and a rental car is speeding north. Leigh Volkov is looking for revenge, and is willing to hurt whoever stands in her way.
